I'm thinking that since in the last contest we had so many landscapes, sculptures and buildings, this time around we could have an exhibit of action photos. Sports, performing arts, everyday life and living ppl, habits, hotties, whoever. I mean, more photos about either europeans or people in Europe than European sceneries.
What do you say??

Re: New Photo Contest!
Mon, March 17, 2008 - 8:16 AMI can already see that my photos aren't even close to as exciting as these so far (I'm already smitten with one already posted), but I'll post 'em anyway, when get back to the PC with the files.
Did you post a deadline? I tend to need deadlines! -

Re: New Photo Contest!
Mon, March 17, 2008 - 2:05 PMSounds good to me. That gives us two weeks to dig through the files. Shall we vote in a thread, or comments on the photos? I don't recall how we did the last ime...
: D -

Re: New Photo Contest!
Mon, March 17, 2008 - 3:51 PMWe voted on a thread last time. I prefer it like that, 'cos it's more organized, has more space to rant, rave and bitch on our faves, and it's also easier to count votes, but if everybody prefer to vote on comments on the photos, it's all fine with me. -

Re: New Photo Contest!
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 10:33 AMbtw, the photos i posted weren't for the contest. since, here is not yet any springy things. winter continues for us. cheers. -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 10:42 AMWell, so far the only rule is action pics! But if you don't want them to be part of the contest, that's fine. :) -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 11:06 AMRight on. It was because they were from winter. I hope to take ones from spring soon. I have to make sure my batteries are charged next time I go out. -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 4:56 PMIf you need more time, we can stretch the deadline all the way to late April! Just let us know. -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Wed, March 19, 2008 - 1:17 AMlets stretch this along a bit. april first may have spring in southern europe but at the moment winter is back, up here in the north, as the arctic winds blow in and snow falls... -

Re: New Photo Contest!
Thu, March 20, 2008 - 12:21 PMApril 15th is a good day??
You know, none of my photos are from this Spring. All were taken last Summer or Fall.

Re: New Photo Contest!
Thu, March 20, 2008 - 12:30 PMYeah we got at least 10 centimeters of snow today in Stavropol Russia. The 20th of March already! -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Thu, March 20, 2008 - 2:40 PMIt has started freezing in Helsinki. I went out with my camera yesterday (was tipsy just got blurry friend shots) and then today (so cold the batteries couldn't last). It looks like we will have a freezing easter. the only flowers that were blooming anywhere I walked were at the cemetery. it is tradition to take potted daffodils to leave at the graves of the ancestors. -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: New Photo Contest!
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 5:06 AMHmmmn... Do we wait for Spring to get brand new photos or do we go with just general action photos we have on our personal collections? -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 1:11 PMseems that its a shame if we just rely on our collections instead of reponding to whats going on now... more fun to think its a recent shot donchyathink?
for the record we've had thunderstorms and bloody freezing hail all day! the poor cherry trees that came into blossom have been ruined! -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 2:56 PMOh. Well, I'd like to leave my photos still up for competition if it's okay with everybody else. You know, I'm REALLY proud of them. :)

Re: New Photo Contest!
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 2:57 PMBut we'll wait for you to post your Springtime pics, whenever Spring arrives in this crazy climate we've been living!

Re: New Photo Contest!
Fri, March 21, 2008 - 5:28 PMWouldn't this limit the contest to those who are in Europe right now? -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Sun, March 23, 2008 - 4:16 AMOkay, no rules or requirements other than either Springtime OR action pics! And deadline is April 15th, unless somebody needs extra time!
Happy shooting! -
-
Re: New Photo Contest!
Sat, March 29, 2008 - 3:36 PMI may need extra time. Don't know yet. "everyday life and living ppl" that's it!
please bear with me, I've been absent without leave for quite a while. My apologies....my new bike has kept me very much occupied. Men and their toys...oh boys!
Awen mi amigo, you is upside down!? Way cool! -

Re: New Photo Contest!
Sat, March 29, 2008 - 4:30 PMYes, I am :D And on my shirt (which is my lucky shirt, actually), it says "revolution" and the arrow, designed to point downwards, is pointing to the Sky! How cool can that be? :D
Now, no deadlines, then. Just you guys tell me when everybody is ready and then we'll be done. For Diane and everybody else who needs one (like myself) deadline is April 15th! Hehe. -

Re: New Photo Contest!
Sun, March 30, 2008 - 12:24 PMdepends. if you still have a noticeable amount of money generated from there ($3000+) i would definitely ask a tax person. i think i'm going to because i was still there for the first part of last year (plus they're trying to sucker us in w/the auto-rebate.) -
